Hi
I'm 21 and for the past 3 years have had anxiety I have cancer. I have a knot in my neck that I've had for 3 years and showed two doctors who felt it and said it was merely part of my skeletal muscle (?) I was diagnosed with a b12 deficiency which led to thrombocytopenia. So on top of the anxiety, I have very real health issues so categorizing the two is hard. My b12 deficiency has gotten worse, I believe, and led me to having legs covered in bruises (im talking literally 15+ on each leg) and severe brain fog/mental disfunction and not feeling like myself. It's gotten worse but a day ago I began taking my vitamins and felt more me. Not completely me but more so. Im continuing with my vitamins to see if they help with the mental symptoms. Along with this, I've been having weird headaches. When I stress, the headache is constant and on one side. Most of my headaches, though, are random bouts of dull pain and I noticed it sometimes is in relation to me unknowingly tensing (?) my head out of fear I'll feel pain then begin worrying about a tumor. 4 months ago I had an mri and it came back clear, no brain tumor. But I'm worried I have one and cannot relieve these worries without another mri, which I cannot afford. Would I know if I had a brain tumor? It's been about over a month since these symptoms began again (only they are different this time than the time before)
